Banners are a marketing tool that is used quite often in various locations. In trade shows however, banners are most commonly used with banner stands. There is an extremely large variety of trade show banner stands in terms of shapes, sizes and types. Even in a trade show setting, there are some banner stand types that are used more commonly than other. In this article we will highlight 3 types of banner stands that will help grow your visibility.
Retractable Banner Stand:
This is our favorite banner stand. It has a sleek modern design that is very appealing. More importantly, the setup and transportation for the retractable banner stand is unrivaled in how easy and simple it is.
When you order the retractable banner stand from us, we fit in the banner for you so that we deliver it to you, it is ready to be set it up just as easily. Most people order a new banner from us when purchasing the retractable banner stand. If you already have a banner you want to use, we will also fit it in ourselves (if the size is correct that is). If you want to change the banner in the retractable banner stand, like many people end up doing for different events, we are also happy to help.
Hop Ups:
Like most of our products, hop-ups can come in different sizes depending on its intended purpose. Hop ups might look intimidating in size, but they are surprisingly easy to set up. You can fit different banners on the hop-ups in case you wanted to change the design for a different event. For trade shows, we provide hop ups like this one that will significantly amplify your presence. The hop ups we supply are surprisingly light, sturdy, and come with stabilizers so that you do not have to worry about the hop up rocking or wobbling. This particular hop-up is 119″ wide, 89″ tall and 19″ deep.
Larger products like these are most commonly used in venues where you are given more room and freedom to dress up your booth. Obviously a hop-up this size will help people find you more easily, but they will also make your booth more visually pleasing. A beautiful background will organically translate your physical presence into social media content for yourself. People generally want to take pictures in the various events they go to. While there are some smaller hop ups designed specifically for people to take photos in front of, having a unique background to your booth will similarly attract a lot of attention for that purpose. You can also bet that when the venue wants to share pictures of their event, they will choose the more impressive booths to share!
Like we previously mentioned, these hop-ups come in various sizes and styles, one type of hop up that is used relatively frequently is the curved hop up design. Curved hop ups are sometimes ordered solely for their unique look, but they can also have different uses. Smaller, curved hop ups can be used to create a small booth, that is designed for a specific purpose (i.e. lead generation), within your booth. This is understandably more common in larger venues where you are given more space to work with.
Trio Stand
The trio stand is a general example of other types of display banner stands that are available. There are countless sizes available for the trio banner stand and similar, simple banner stands. Some of these types of banner stands tend to be less flexible in terms of the sizes that can fit on them. However, if you have an exact banner size for a specific purpose or already have a banner that you are looking to fit in, then you can not go wrong with these.
